Trail Overview
The east half of Five Cent Road. This trail passes through open forest and private land so be respectful when passing through. This is not one that travels fast, but will make plenty of dust during the dry season. This road is open to all traffic, but does see a lot of ATV/SxS traffic in the summer months. Mostly gravel with a lot of spurs, but make sure you are not trespassing when getting of the main route.
